The bed wetter.

It is the same dream every other night.

Standing in the bathroom with the lid up,

It is time to pee



And I do.



Wakening up with soaking pyjamas is no joke.

In fact it is fearful and embarrassing .

The flannelette sheet is well damp.

The smell of stale urine in the morning

Is quite overpowering and horrible.



Even the bottom of my jacket is still wet,

As I step out of uncomfortable bottoms,

My barefaced culprit looks shrivelled

And small.



Little did I know that the small testicle sack

Only held one.

The trauma of the undecended testicle

Was yet to come..



With my heart beating I think no more water or cheese

And lift the lid of the laundry basket.

Ashamed  and scared.

Not another row.
